The developer experience of a surface where an AI agent is the developer — an SDK, tool, structured output, error envelope, or telemetry an agent consumes to build with or act through. Provenance lives in skill.json; this file is runtime routing only.
What this skill does
Agent Dx is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the languages sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/agent-dx/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.
Who uses this skill

When should I use the Agent Dx skill?
Use Agent Dx when your Claude Code task falls under the Engineering category — specifically in the languages area. Claude Code auto-discovers installed skills and invokes the right one based on the task description, so you can also ask Claude directly (e.g. "use Agent Dx" or describe the task and let Claude pick). Browse related skills at /category/engineering/.
What is a Claude Code skill and how does the Agent Dx skill fit in?
A Claude Code skill is a SKILL.md file that lives under ~/.claude/skills/<name>/ and tells the Claude Code CLI agent how to perform a specific task (instructions, prompts, allowed tools). Skills are auto-discovered at session start. Agent Dx is one of 67,000+ skills indexed in the open ClaudSkills catalog, classified under the Engineering category.
